  • Previous Save Comes up Black

    I don't think this file is recoverable. I tried digging into the drawing list, and it is basically empty, only a few entities, but nothing related to an actual drawing.

  • Contour Coloring Question

    The contours follow the coloration of your FT3 world. If your contours are all in a close range, they may indeed all come out the same color since the FT3 coloring is "world scale" not "local scale".

    If you set up advanced contours in the export settings, you can go in and manually assign a color to each contour level overriding the default height matching

  • How Do I Effectively Use Trim for Contour Lines

    Multipoly combines multiple entities into one. The main advantage of multipoly is that it can be used to create holes in shapes which is needed for things like holes and some valleys.

    But multipolies aren't editable, because they are a composite entity. Only way to edit it is to break the multipoly (:CC2EXPLODE:), edit the entities it is made up from ,and then reform the multipoly.

  • New project. Historical city detail: Padova. WIP

    Looks like a great start. Looking forward to how this will turn out. This style can really look nice.

  • Error after fresh install - error saving to file Map.FCW

    Some default may not be appropriate when running it on a different user than the one who installed it, but CC3+ does remember the last directory used, so once you save your map in a proper location, CC3+ should remember that for the next time. I am guessing that it probably default to the installation directory, where a normal user won't have write access.

  • Game of Chess, anyone?

    Your point 1 is of outmost importance. Always have an idea for what you want to make. Just a rough idea with a few concepts is good enough, but never just "start a dungeon". Have a little thought about your desired layout, or perhaps a central feature you want to develop the dungeon around, or something....

  • Annual 1, issue 4 - Sarah Wroot map. My example after the Live Mapping session

    No worries. In general, I would encourage people to use the like button as much as possible. That's how people see that others appreciate what they posted. (A nice post is even better, but I know it isn't always easy to have something to say about every map even if you liked it, so the like button is a nice alternative.)

  • Missing Drawing Tools?

    Cliff, Water Turbulence

    Terrain Contour Higher

    Map, Cartouche Line (there are two of them)

    Terrain, Contour Higher

    Water, Waves

    Alle of these draw white/transparent areas, so they are just a bit invisible against the white background of the drawing tool list.

  • Missing Drawing Tools?

    I notice you are missing all the Cliff tools (but seem to have the others). These are not part of the original style, but added by the City Cliffs annual issue from the 2020 annual. This would indicate that your template is still an old version without these fills defined.

    Try to re-download the latest version of the 2020 annual installer, and re-install it. (If you don't own the 2020 annual, you are not supposed to have these cliff tools, if so, the tools themselves may have been added by an error)
